WARDROBE FUNCTIONS

I hate watching movies or TV shows…
When the make-believe world I’m watching…
Has snaggy details that make me go, hmm?
Like the new episode of Game of Thrones, for instance.
Lots of nudity in that one…
But it wasn’t the lack of clothing that perturbed me…
It was the clothing in general…
Specifically (and maybe I nodded off here and didn’t catch why)…
When Tyrion Lannister marries Sansa Stark …..
Why wasn’t she wearing a wedding dress?
Why was everyone wearing the same clothes…
That they wore in the last three episodes?
Why was Cersei Lannister, the king’s mother…
In her everyday dress?
Why do some look like they’re dressed for winter…
And other’s for summer?
And King Joffrey’s fiancĂ©...
Why was still in that same old blue frock?
Perhaps the wardrobe budget had been cut…
Hence all the scantily clad women.
(Can we say hooray for lots of bootay!)
And so here’s a note to the director:
It’s only fair if you show ladies naked…
That you show the same amount of manly flesh…
And I’m not talking naked chests and arms…
(Can we say yay for some manly bootay!)
What say you?
Do you find details like these...
As irritating as wool?
And does it break your entertainment reality?

THE ECSTASY AND THE AGONY

Ah…
Last night…
I was so excited…
Game of Thrones was coming on.
First up…
A repeat of last week’s episode...
Then after that…
The new episode.
Last Sunday...
I had fallen asleep during that new episode…
So to assure I wouldn’t fall asleep this time…
I brewed a fresh cup of coffee…
And I had taken a nap earlier.
All I had to do was turn on the TV…
Sit back with my cup of Joe when…
Noooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Spanish!
Spanish?
Por que? Hmm?
Obviously the repeats were in Spanish…
And while I am taking Spanish lesions…
I’m not that fluent yet.
But I couldn’t not watch…
I had to see what Khaleesi did with her slave men…
Will Jaimi Lannister survive without his hand?
Always love watching any scene with Tyrion Lannister…
Especially when it includes his sinister sister, Cersei.
And a cheap thrill for me?
Who gets naked in this episode?
I suppose I could get the book series, Game of Thrones…
That way I’d always know all the action…
Plus...
It would be fun having a visual of the characters.
But I don’t like doing that…
That being, reading a book after I’ve seen the movie.
And besides...
Seeing someone butt naked is more fun than visualizing.
What about you?
Do you like to read a book…
After you’ve seen a movie?
Do you watch Game of Thrones?
Who’s your favorite character?

Always, Em-Musing
